What Women Want: Why Making Her Laugh Is Important

The beautiful late Marilyn Monroe once said, “If you can make a woman laugh, you can make her do anything.” As a woman, I can tell you that although this isn't completely accurate, there is a lot of truth behind this statement. Women love a man that can make her laugh. In most cases, if you ask a woman what she is looking for in a man, one of her first answers will be “sense of humor.” When we tell our girlfriends, “He is so funny!” it is the equivalent to your “She's so hot!”

So... Why Do Women Love a Sense of Humor?

1.) Men say it all the time: Women are emotional.

It's true. We cry during movies. Sometimes we get angry about things that you think are small. So, why not appeal to an emotion that makes us feel good?

2.) It's scientific.

Laughter helps us to release something called endorphins, which are a hormone that makes us feel good. Endorphins are very similar to morphine, but they are even stronger. Make a woman laugh, and you induce a natural high. The end result: She's addicted to you.

3.) It shows that you have your head in the game.

It takes a smart guy to come up with a witty one liner at the drop of a hat. You can have abs like Channing Tatum and a face like Tyson Beckford's, but if you don't have a mind to match it, you'll be fine as long as you don't speak. Guys who don't have wit and humor are just plain boring, no matter how handsome you are.

4.) Humor is where the heart is.

Men who joke will often laugh at themselves. This shows that you have a sense of humility. While it's okay to crack a joke about yourself, don't insult yourself. It makes women uncomfortable to hear you laugh about what a loser you are.

5.) Laughing makes memories.

When you are on a date with a woman and the two of you laugh, it is an instant memory. She will think that you want to make memories with her, which then leads her into thinking that you will want to see her again. It lets her believe that she can feel less nervous around you and she will want to see you again.

There are a few things to remember before trying to make your date laugh:

-Don't laugh at anyone's expense.

It is a major turn off to hear your date make fun of someone. You can come off as mean, rude, and insecure.

-Don't laugh at your own jokes.

It makes you seem like you're self-centered. It's okay to chuckle here and there, especially if your date does. Remember to laugh at her jokes too.

-Slapstick comedy is only funny in the movies.

It makes you look foolish.

Now go out and practice! Start with a joke and see where it leads you. There isn't anything better than a man who can make you laugh.
